What a bunch of tankers . . . . litterally.
Were in the 2nd day of the Shell Tanker driver strike here in the U.K, mainly over their low pay of £32,000 a year. One driver on the national news was quoted saying "were driving around in a bomb". What?, hang on a second, he gets almost £4,000 a month driving a truck and a truck full of fuel which he already new he would be driving when applying for the job. O.K, so (from what I can make out) Shell state they pay their drivers £37,000 a year, which is not the case.
However, while these strikes go on, fuel prices are still high. Talk about hitting joe public where it hurts, yet again. Like we don't have enough to deal with. It was also reported that within hours of the strike going ahead, petrol station were reporting low fuel due to some drivers panic buying.
